Monument surveyed in 2015 and described by McGuinness (2015, 55) as following: ‘This and a second mound-barrow (WM020-027----) close by to N, both marked as circular mounds on OS maps, have been destroyed, leaving few traces on the ground. The site was examined by an ASI fieldworker on 11/3/72: Mounds 3 [WM020-027----] and 4 [the present site]. The two mounds marked on the current 6-inch OS map are completely demolished and have left no recognisable trace on the ground. There is a wide scatter of small stones at and around the sites.... Mound 4 was on the S. slope of the same rise [as Mound 3] and again its site is marked by a wide circular scatter of small stones. [SMR file] According to the same source, on OS Fair Plan from 1830s this monument is ‘Shown as a small feature with a single tree marked on it. Not marked as an antiquity’.
